College Gameday: AAA Lot Edition


If you build it, they will…perform.

My parents have had the same tailgate spot at Army football games for at least a decade, and this past weekend, as Army went on to beat I-AA VMI, there just happened to be a Gameday-like platform in the nearby vicinity. Don’t give us a stage and tell us not to use it.

Take a glimpse at the somewhat less famous versions of (from l to r) Chris Fowler, Kirk Herbstreit, Desmond Howard, and Lee Corso. Check out vid number two for my favorite part, AAA-Lot-Erin-Andrews’ sneak attack on AAA-Lot-Kirk.

The Extra Point: If you weren’t there and can name the “fan” in the Civil War cavalry hat, you will win my undying admiration.

So I Think My GPS is Trying to Kill Me

He may look innocent, but he's not.

I’m kind of in love with my GPS. When I was working as a reporter on the Isle of Long, driving down backroads to find fires, murders, and government officials getting DUIs, it always got me where I needed to go. But recently, I think it may have turned on me.

But in the past few months, it’s begun to turn on by itself (without being plugged in) and start talking to me. What’s more, when this happens, the GPS usually begins giving me directions to a place I did not program in, and no matter where I am, that place is always at least 2 hours away. What other conclusion is there? My GPS is definitely trying to kill me.

There’s a Whole Lot of Inappropriate Going on in the Halloween Department

I'm uncomfortable.

At the risk of this becoming a blog solely about the crazy-slash-fantastic that goes on in the mecca that is Target, I need to share with you my most recent experience: the Target Halloween costume department. Holy Inappropriateness. I can’t even begin to describe how uncomfortable I was.

First, the adult costumes for 11-year-old girls. Do parents even exist anymore? And what exactly is a Midnight Maven? Why is this child out at midnight anyway? When I was in fifth grade, I was a table for Halloween. A table. My head was a centerpiece. It was the greatest costume ever. My only guess is that this girl is a cross between Elvira and the licorice man from Candy Land, who by day runs an escort service. I’m just sayin’. Also in this section, a “Stitch Witch” (not sure at all what that means), and some kind of British go-go dancer. Come on people.
